An Unusual Case of Hemosiderotic Fibrohistiocytic Lipomatous Lesion: Correlation of MRI and Pathologic Findings

الملخص EN

The spectrum of lipomatous lesions ranges from benign to highly malignant disease.

Differentiation between these lesions is important to indicate prognosis and choose the most appropriate treatment.

Hemosiderotic fibrohistiocytic lipomatous lesion (HFLL) is a rare subtype of lipomatous tumor.

The diagnosis is usually based on clinical, histological, and immunohistochemical information.

Where magnetic resonance (MR) imaging is a suitable modality to assess fatty tumors, no data is reported on MR imaging of HFLL.

Here, the MR characteristics are described in correlation with pathologic findings in a case of HFLL in the left thigh, an unusual location.
